Upcoming main Moon phases
- Last Quarter in Virgo ♍ on 8 December 2058 at 04:51
- New Moon in Sagittarius ♐ on 15 December 2058 at 16:12
- First Quarter in Aries ♈ on 22 December 2058 at 08:27

Spring tide
There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
Lunation 728 / 1681
The Moon is 15 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 728 of Meeus index or 1681 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.54 days
Length of current 728 lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 2 minutes. It is 1 hour and 17 minutes longer than next lunation 729 length.
Lunation length longer than mean
Length of current synodic month is 18 minutes longer than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 6 hours and 45 minutes shorter, compared to 21st century longest.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠294°
This lunation true anomaly is ∠294°. At the beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠321.5°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep decreasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Moon before apogee
9 days after point of perigee on 20 November 2058 at 22:40 in ♑ Capricorn. The lunar orbit is getting wider, while the Moon is moving outward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 5 days, until it get to the point of next apogee on 6 December 2058 at 07:43 in ♌ Leo.
Distance to Moon 391 499 km
Moon is 391 499 km (243 266 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves farther next 5 days until apogee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 404 781 km (251 519 mi).
Moon after ascending node
1 day after its ascending node on 29 November 2058 at 23:07 in ♉ Taurus, the Moon is following the northern part of its orbit for the next 13 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from North to South in descending node on 14 December 2058 at 09:40 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Draconic month
1 day after beginning of current draconic month in ♉ Taurus, the Moon is moving from the beginning to the first part of it.
Moon before northern standstill
11 days after previous South standstill on 19 November 2058 at 09:59 in ♑ Capricorn, when Moon has reached southern declination of ∠-26.009°. Next 2 days the lunar orbit moves northward to face North declination of ∠26.007° in the next northern standstill on 2 December 2058 at 15:32 in ♋ Cancer.
Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy
The Moon is in Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun on this date and this alignment forms Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy.
